My cousins bucket list

[JeeperG]

Those of you watching my 40 build thread probably seen how a bunch of us came together to help my cousin get his 49 5 window built and driving.

Thought this was too great not to share, I'm so happy he's checking more off his bucket list. I don't know what I'd do in his shoes.

Also wanted to add that my brother will be taking the 49 down to the Hurricane Easter car show, I know Scott will also be there as long as he's able.

Here's another one they did for his bucket list truck.

I've said it before, you guys are a great family! Lots of nice memories!

Those were both fun to watch. Well made videos, too!

Well thanks buddy, hopefully we can create some more. Looking forward to going to some car shows and cruising with Scott's truck as well as the rest of the family.

You really need to see it in person, yes Susan still drives it. 🙂

Yeah he basically hired out for that stuff, glad they did it. They will come up with something that can be with the truck at shows too, video or picture book I'm not sure.

I wish I had that kind of family support for my kids to grow up with, that is special. I love how much his family loves him. His daughter is so sweet with her, "I love you dad"!

I lost an uncle to ALS and got emotional watching those videos... It is a horrible way to go. Glad to see the family rally around him and build lasting memories they can cherish for decades to come.

Thanks for sharing.

Love the truck. Makes me really miss the '48 I drove in high school.

Sorry to hear that, it is horrible for sure, unfortunately its also genetic, my cousin watched his dad go the same way and I believe a grandfather and uncle? He new exactly what was coming, his was pretty aggressive, I may have some of my other cousins go out the same way if they are gene carriers? may have also passed down to his children? Hopefully gene editing or something in the future will be able to fix it.

It is a beautiful truck, I am pretty sure my cousin was building that thing in his head for a good 20+ years after he sold his first one, 51 I believe. He had a great vision and I am glad he got to enjoy it for even a few months.
